However, you need to see the truth that God designed and decreed all things, even its awkward and non convenient to man. God is metaphysically sovereign, and metaphysically author of everything.

The ultimate reality of a Christian is to live and know God as the one who decreed all things, and by this he enjoys the life coming from God. Everything happens because He is the cause and source of all things.

Logically, when one focuses on simply the ethics and the practical aspects of Christianity, one will necessarily move away from the metaphysical and epistemological aspects. You see this kind of thing in the “fundamentalist” circles, (unfortunately not the way Machen used it). If you question “why” then you are simply shunned. In any case, a shift in this direction cuts the whole of Christianity into little blocks, and it becomes lopsided.

I think this was spot on, and well worth the read

Thanks
